Okiboru Tsukemen & Ramen

Okiboru is absolutely delicious, has excellent service, and a wonderful atmosphere. You can tell the food is high quality and that a ton of care goes into every dish. The thick noodles are my favorite -- the texture is the perfect chewy consistency, the flavors are mild and complementary to the dipping broth. We ordered two dipping ramens/tsukemens, two regular ramens, two appetizer rice bowls, and edamame. Everything was outstanding, thoroughly enjoyed, and completely gone by the end of the meal. The service from Jo was amazing, and everyone was super friendly, helpful, and competent. I highly recommend eating here as the quality food value is certainly worth the reasonable prices!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Okiboru, and I can't stop thinking about the incredible flavors! The Spicy Tori Paitan was a standout—rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of heat. The depth of flavor was impressive and left me wanting more. Next, the Truffle Shoyu was a revelation. The umami was elevated by the truffle, creating a luxurious experience with each sip. It’s a must-try for anyone who loves a flavorful broth. Lastly, the Okiboru Buns were simply divine. Soft and fluffy, they paired beautifully with the broths and added a delightful texture to the meal. Overall, Okiboru delivers an exceptional dining experience with dishes that are both comforting and innovative. They also have great drinks! We had the Henny Bee and the Summer Sangria. I can’t wait to return and explore more of the menu!

I had an amazing ramen, the gyozas I ordered were ok, I feel like I’d they have a tangy sauce or other they’d taste excellent. However my server was amazing. My server was amazing, so sweet and friendly.

Best ramen in Atlanta EVER… no need to try anywhere else. I always have Sherlin as my server and she’s absolutely incredible. All of the staff is so sweet and welcoming and service is quick, food super fresh and obviously divine! Must visit!

The food was decent and the drinks were okay. I didn’t like the ramen that much but the fries were good.

sooo amazing. i really don’t have anything else to say about this experience because this is easily the best ramen restaurant in atlanta and the metro area. please try the tori paitan ramen! even though the tonkotsu is unforgettable as well, it’s a treat you’ll probably never forget.

Best ramen I’ve ever had by far and I’ve tried most ramen places in and around Atlanta. Prices are extremely low given the quality of the food. I got the gyoza and spicy tonkotsu ramen and it was just shy of $26 after taxes before tip. The waiter was on point and I didn’t have to wait long at all for my food. Absolutely love this place!

Phong was a great server!!He was Really nice and attentive and food was amazing! Best ramen weve had and we eat ramen a lot

Th ramens were great! I Love the flavor of the Tonkotsu Red pork broth. Although it was very simple with very few sides it had a lot of depth. I did wish for more texture in my ramen noodles but the broth made up for it. The crispy dumplings and the Okiboru pork buns were good as well. The place is small, quaint and CLEAN! The customer service was Exceptional--thanks so much to Steven and Sherlyn!!!

The spicy tonkotsu was delicious and the server, Sherlin, was very attentive. We will be coming back!

I enjoy the food every time I visit. It's very tasty and delicious. The service is, server Sherlin was very nice and knows how to treat customers. Sherlin, checked on us to make sure everything was fine. I enjoy the setting every time I visit. keep up the good work. Thanks for the great customer service...

BEST RAMEN IN ATLANTA I wish I was plankton so I could steal the recipe to this broth. It is amazing. I promise you could drink the broth alone and be satisfied. If you want a good Tori Paitan, I'd advise here. They have a bar as well that makes great drinks. I come here pretty often and receive quick and nice customer service.

I've gone to the Sandy Springs location a few times and was craving for some tsukemen so stopped by the Buckhead location. The quality of food here is just as consistent as the other location and the food was just overall just so good. My friend and I split the fries and ebi karaage and as always they're fried to perfection and come out piping hot. The tsukemen is also solid just like the original location in Sandy Springs. Flavors are very strong and the noodles are cooked perfectly al dente and since it's a dipping ramen, they don't get soggy if you're a slower eater! Ramen egg and chashu also made very well and was delicious. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a ramen restaurant if you're in the area!

I kinda consider myself a retired yelpoholic. I mean, I gave this website 13 HARDCORE years of review writing and photography, as well as spent thousands of hours sending compliments daily to Yelpers both near and far. I was putting in full time hours every week and even yelped while on vacation with the same intensity. I used to get up hours before my family so I could yelp without taking any time away from them. I'm truly tired... so I RE-tired :-) While I thought I would never write another review after the final countdown of 2023, I'm still a hardcore Yelper at heart and simply can't resist sharing a new find worthy of penning a new review. The SPICY TORI PAITAN ramen at Okiboru is indeed a find worthy of writing about. [ THE FOOD ] ++ TORI PAITAN RAMEN (4.5 stars) | $15.50 (+ .75 for chili paste on the side) DESCRIPTION: Rich chicken broth, chicken karaage, soft boiled egg, spinach, scallion, thin hakata noodles. Without question this is one of the richest, creamiest and most flavorful ramen chicken broths I've ever had the pleasure of tasting. Its flavor lingered on my tongue long after my last bite. The spicy chili paste I asked for on the side somehow took the already amazing flavor of the broth up another level. I don't usually care for spicy foods, but I was extremely pleased with being able to add a few spoonful's to my desired level. The thin Hakata Noodles were masterclass level perfection, and the egg was slightly runny, which made me very happy. It wasn't the best ajitsuke tamago I've ever had, but very good nonetheless. The complaints I have are minor: 1) The Chicken Karaage included with the TORI PAITAN is good, but I wish it had been as excellent in flavor as the broth. It might have even been excellent in any other ramen restaurant's broth, but it definitely took a back seat here. 2) It would have been nice if there were more toppings included, such as sweet corn or crispy onions. 3) While the broth is truly soul satisfying, the overall volume of the bowl is rather small. ----- ++ EBI KARAAGE (4.5 STARS) | $12.00 DESCRIPTION: Panko shrimp, umami mayo, pickled cucumber, chives. Excellent appetizer! The mayo and sweet pickles complimented the fried shrimp extremely well. [ SERVICE / ATMOSPHERE ] I honestly almost got in my car and left because the service was so slow initially. The manager seemed to be doing everything from greeting and taking orders to acting as the ONLY server and clean-up crew. When I first arrived, I could also see her in the kitchen. Including me, there were about 8 other people she was serving as well as bagging phone orders. It was A LOT to handle. But I'm happy I remained patient because she was truly a joy and did everything with a smile. The food arrived quickly after ordering, so that also helped. The restaurant itself is situated in the old Holman & Finch location. There is free parking in the attached garage behind the restaurant. [ FINAL THOUGHTS ] Okiboru's Michelin-Rating should say it all! But if it doesn't, let me just say I simply can't imagine a better or more flavorful chicken broth than the one I had today! I look forward to returning to try some of their other ramen flavors. However, after learning they have a newly opened location near the Mall of Georgia, I'll likely make that my next visit since it is soooo much closer to my home.

I dine at Okiboru several times a month, not just because it's conveniently located near me, but because the service and food are consistently excellent. The cozy restaurant is always clean, and I'm seated immediately when I arrive, with little wait time for the food. I visited again yesterday with my partner. For our appetizer, we had the Ebi Karaage ($12), which came with four Panko-breaded shrimp served with Umami mayo, pickled cucumber, and chives. While the shrimp was lightly breaded and flavorful, I was hoping for a larger portion given the price. For my main course, I had the Tori Paitan ($15.50), which featured a rich chicken broth and tender chicken karaage; it was delicious! My partner ordered the Wafu Tsukemen ($18), a deconstructed dish served in two bowls: one with a rich chicken and fish broth, and the other with thick noodles, pork, spinach, yuzu peel, chives, and a soft-boiled egg. My partner loved it, as the flavors blended beautifully. However, if you're not a fan of fish, this dish might not be for you.

Ready for some Michelin-recognized ramen? Okiboru is the place for you, because ohmigawd, it's so good. My friends and I were checking out some dinner options (through Yelp, of course) around the area of our AirBnB and it turned out that Okiboru was only a short distance away. Located in the bottom of the Aramore Condominiums building, we arrived, had the car parked by valet (there have been some recent break-ins in the area, so having someone who could look over the car was a bonus), and made our way right inside. It wasn't too crowded, and we were seated quickly. The menu, of course, focuses on ramen and tsukemen (also known as "dipping ramen" - where the broth is served on the side and you dip your ramen noodles and such into it before slurping it down) while also offering some quality small plates. Then there are, of course, the cocktails. There was a refreshing watermelon flavored cocktail special on the night we went.... none of us could help ourselves, so we each ordered one in order to toast our trip. They were quite tasty. We also ordered a couple small plates for the table... okiboru buns (1 order of tofu, 1 order of chicken) and the ebi karage (panko shrimp, umami mayo, pickled cucumber, chives). All delicious. As for the ramen, we each ordered a different flavor - personally, I ordered the truffle shoyu ramen (light chicken broth, truffle oil, chicken, half soft boiled egg, spinach, chive, thin Hakata noodles), which was a bit of a test. Truffle oil can quite easily become overpowering - or taste artificial. Instead, whatever truffle oil they used added a delicate flavor to the balance of the light (but still rich) chicken shoyu broth. Staff are friendly, service is prompt, and the overall ambience is welcoming - almost like it's a posh little hole-in-the-wall. Is that a thing? If not, I'm making it a thing. Would absolutely return if I was ever in the area again.

Menu is via QR code: https://ohbz.com/oo/okiborutsukemenramen-atlanta-ga Parking is convenient- parking deck attached to the building. There sometimes will be a Valet there but you can self park. I feel like Okiboru isn't as good as it used to be. This is my first time at this location for Okiboru, but I have tried Prefecture (immediately across). Tried Sandy Springs multiple times before and Duluth. Spicy Paitan Tsukemen used to come with bamboo and a whole egg (rather than half egg). The broth is still solid. Tried the matcha udon. I liked that the noodles were kept on ice to keep it cold, however I couldn't really taste the matcha and it was fairly similar to the tsukemen noodles otherwise. Could have been cooked more too as both noodles were on the harder side. The matcha udon is something that is fairly refreshing if you're in the mood for something cold, though. Ebi karage that comes with it is solid.

Hole in the wall alert!!! Wow, what amazing food; plus, drinks are super delicious. We had a little bit of everything (receipt in pics). Parking is free (in garage behind the restaurant). *Only suggestion: Need more dessert options!

First time here and the ramen here is AMAZING!!! It is a rich broth that is not salty, it has so much depth and is so so delicious. The noodles were also perfectly cooked and chewy, with a nice jammy yolk. The chasu pork was tender and bursting with a charred flavor, and really tied the ramen together. We also got the gyoza appetizer which was also perfectly crunchy and piping hot, it was so so good. Service is fast and the people are friendly, food comes out super fresh. The interior is clean and modern, perfect for casual settings and even date nights! For $16-$18 for an amazing bowl of ramen I would highly recommend!!!!!

So delicious. Cute restaurant. And great service! I stopped in for some ramen to celebrate the cooler temps coming in. Went with the spicy yasai ramen (vegan option) and had a couple of buns (one tofu/other chicken). Both buns were tasty. But I wanna focus on the ramen. That broth was soooo good. And the flavor of the tofu. (Insert chef's kiss) Ion know what they but in the broth but Imma have to go back... real soon. Cause I cannot get it outta my mind. Yum.

For a Monday night, I was surprised to see almost every seat in the house was full! I got to try their Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen and Okiboru Buns. Unfortunately, the buns were a little cool by the time it got to our table but I still liked the pork with slices of pickles. The broth of the ramen was slightly fatty, salty, and a good balance of umami. Fresh garlic requested on the side was a great addition to the dish so I highly recommend. It was an intimate and clean place with lots of earthy tones and textures. Great for casual or slightly formal! Overall, it was a great experience. Staff were beyond professional and friendly. Would absolutely come again!

This is some of the best ramen I have ever had! The broth is rich and layered with flavor, striking a perfect balance that speaks to the use of fresh, high-quality ingredients. The egg is prepared to perfection --soft and seasoned to complement the dish beautifully. The chicken karaage is a well-executed accompaniment, with a crispy exterior giving way to tender, juicy meat. Outside of the ramen, my favorite thing on the menu is the Brussels sprouts. They are excellent. Their crisp texture and robust seasoning make them a notable highlight of each visit. Service is consistently efficient and professional, whether it be for lunch or dinner. The restaurant maintains a high standard of cleanliness throughout, including in the bathrooms--which is always a plus for me and speaks to the establishment's overall care for the customer's experience. When recommending ramen to visiting friends, this spot remains my go-to! It's perfect in any season and perfect for any time of day.

The Spicy Tonkotsu ramen is FLAVORFUL. We came here for dinner and I was looking forward to trying out the spicy Tonkotsu ramen and it exceeded my expectations. The noodles were cooked al dente and the broth was rich and packed with porky flavor. The chashu was tender and seasoned well. The drink I got was yummy and paired nicely with my ramen. The service was attentive and quick. It was a busy night so we waited longer than usual but that's okay because it was worth it. The ambiance feels urban but cozy at the same time. I enjoy the night-market-esque feel of the place. I definitely would come back for their ramen if I'm ever back in town! *BONUS: the truffle fries were DELICIOUS and I highly recommend your table to get one to share

Staff were friendly and service was quick! There's both table seating and bar seating. If you come with a large group, I would call in advance to check if they fit you. I got the spicy tonkatsu ramen. The broth was super creamy and rich! I was thoroughly surprised. The pork had a melt in your mouth feeling. I would 100% come again!

Best sushi, I have EVER had. Marilyn MonROLL is a personal fav. Bummer the skyline views were wrecked with the surrounding development, but you don't get a better date night than cocktails and sushi here!

Intimate restaurant with quick service and yummy food. We went at 8:30 pm with a party of 6 and were told as we were seated that the kitchen was only open for another 16 minutes so basically get our act together quickly, which we did! Food came out lightening fast and was very flavorful. Our table tried all different meals and everyone was happy with their choices.

This was my second time going to Okiboru. I had gone to the one in Sandy Springs a few years ago, but personally, I wasn't the biggest fan. I decided to come to the one in Buckhead to give it a second try. Me and my fiancé went for dinner. We each got our own ramen, and shared the Shoyu Brussels. Let me start with the Shoyu Brussels. These were the best brussels sprouts that I have ever had, and I have had brussels sprouts from many different places. The taste of these was so flavorful. Each bite whether a big sprout or a small shaving of one, tasted just as good as the first one. They had this incredible tangy taste that paired so well. I could not get enough of these. HIGHLY recommend getting them if you come to eat here. For my ramen, I got the spicy tori paitan (chicken). It was honestly pretty good. I loved how the chicken karrage was not huge pieces like it is at most ramen places. They were smaller and easier to chew through with the ramen. Don't get me wrong, the ramen was good, but it wasn't great. There are other places in Atlanta that I think have better ramen, but this is just my opinion. This is a Michelin rated restaurant, so opinions do differ. The vibe inside is very casual. They have merch hanging throughout the restaurant, so if you want a cool Okiboru Japanese-themed shirt, you can purchase one. They also have a full bar too, so if you're in the mood for drinks, you can definitely find something that you will enjoy. I am not too sure if the ramen was good enough for me to want to come back, but they do have other items that aren't ramen, that I do want to try, so I will be back, just not in the near future.

We checked out Okiboru's new Buckhead location and the ramen was the same excellent quality that we had at the original location in Sandy Springs. If you want some of the best ramen Atlanta has to offer, I recommend this place. That's all you need to know. If you want details, keep reading. Everything about Okiboru's ramen was on point, from the noodles to the broth. The quality of the ingredients was great and the prices were fair. Metro Atlanta has a lot of good ramen restaurants and to me, Okiboru seems to have an edge on the competition. I love their thinner, firmer Hakata-style noodles and rich, complex broth that is absolutely packed with umami. If you've never had Okiboru ramen before, the difference in ingredient quality and recipe is one you can taste. They seem to have perfected their process/recipe. One of my old Yelp friends once said (and I've mentioned this in at least one of my other ramen restaurant reviews) words to the effect of, "Ramen is like barbecue. No one can agree on it." For example, I know several folks who really like the Jinya chain. In my opinion, Jinya can't hold a candle to Okiboru. Not that I think Jinya's ramen is bad, it just never jived with me. Okiboru gets everything about their ramen right, from the thick, succulent slices of pork chashu with just the ideal amount of fat to the delectable slices of menma (fermented bamboo shoots) which aren't cheap or run-of-the-mill. I had both the regular and spicy Tonkotsu Ramen at this location. They were equally flavorful and satisfying. If you love spicy food, go with the spicy. It's legit got a kick to it. The regular is just as satisfying. During our visit, we accessed Okiboru's menu via a QR code at our table. Here's the link: https://www.musthavemenus.com/oo/places/okiboruofbuckhead-atlanta-ga. Hopefully, the link still works if you try to access it. Paper menus were available upon request. Below is what we ordered: Ramen * Tonkotsu Ramen ($16) - rich pork broth, pork chashu, half soft-boiled egg, scallions, thin hakata noodles * Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen ($16) - rich spicy pork broth, pork chashu, half soft-boiled egg, scallions, thin hakata noodles Small Plates * Okiboru Pork Buns (2 for $9) - steamed buns, pork, garlic aioli, soy glaze, pickled cucumber, chive * Truffle Garlic Edamame (vegan) ($8.50) - edamame soy beans, garlic soy sauce, truffle oil Cocktails * Okiboru Old Fashioned ($15) - Akashi Select whisky, Angostura bitters, orange bitters, housemade simple syrup, UME Plum Liqueur * Saving Grace ($14) - Kettle One Vodka, Fruitful Pink Guava Liqueur, lychee juice, fresh lime juice, housemade simple syrup * We're Just Friends ($13) - Roku rosemary-infused gin, peach liqueur, housemade simple syrup, fresh lemon juice, topped with Da Luca Prosecco Draft Beer * Orion ($12) Aside from the ramen, everything else I tried here was good to great. Even simpler items like the edamame, Okiboru makes sure to do something to make it stand out from the competition. In this case, it's Truffle Garlic Edamame, and it works. The cocktails were fantastic too. They were well-made, strong, and delicious. I think the drinks at Okiboru fly under the radar and don't get the attention they deserve. Along with tonkotsu, Okiboru offers other kinds of ramen broth and protein options (e.g., truffle shoyu with pork or chicken, tori paitan with chicken, and yasai vegetarian with tofu) as well as their famous tsukemen dipping ramen in three varieties. I didn't order the tsukemen this time because frankly, I was too lazy. It's a bit of a novelty. I'll probably get it next time, though. Service was terrific. Less than a year in, this location already appeared to be running like a well-oiled machine. Great staff. Okiboru Buckhead is located in the old KarmaFarm (https://www.yelp.com/biz/phatyuca-atlanta-2) and original Holeman & Finch (https://www.yelp.com/biz/holeman-and-finch-atlanta-2) space on street level at the Aramore condo building. Free parking is available in the Aramore's garage behind the restaurant. For longtime Atlantans, it's interesting how much this space has changed since its time as the OG H&F. This isn't a very big space and it got busy during our Saturday evening visit. KarmaFarm, now PhatYuca, didn't last in this space long, having opened here back in July 2020. This Okiboru location opened on October 5, 2022. This was the third Okiboru to open in metro Atlanta. At the time of writing this review, the locations are: 1. Okiboru Sandy Springs (opened December 2019) https://www.yelp.com/biz/okiboru-tsukemen-and-ramen-sandy-springs-2 2. Okiboru Duluth (opened August 23, 2022) https://www.yelp.com/biz/okiboru-tsukemen-and-ramen-duluth 3. Okiboru Buckhead (opened October 5, 2022) 4. Okiboru Mall of Georgia (currently under construction) Outside of Georgia, a location opened in New York, on the Lower East Side in Manhattan, on October 1, 2022: https://www.yelp.com/biz/okiboru-house-of-tsukemen-new-york.

We are fans of the Okiboru in Sandy Springs, but since we moved, the Buckhead one is closest for us. We went at dinner time on a Thursday and were able to easily secure a parking spot in the parking garage behind the restaurant and a seat. Valet parking is offered if preferred, but the parking garage is free! We do prefer the interior of the Sandy Springs location better, but this one is very cute as well. We loved the themed Okiboru t-shirts that they displayed. We ordered the Okiboru buns with pork, calamari, and two spicy tonkatsu ramens. The Okiboru buns were delicious and just like the Sandy Springs location, though they were just a tad cold. The calamari was okay. I thought the portions were on the smaller side and wasn't worth the price. The ramen is still the star, and we both ate our bowls quickly. The only thing we did not enjoy were the bamboo shoots. They had a very strong unpleasant taste that we do not remember when eating the ramen before and had to pick them out. The service was great, and they were very attentive! Overall, we would definitely visit again, though we still prefer the original location.

The restaurant is small. Food was Ok Service not so. We had some friends in our group that don't drink cold water and request hot water. The server said they don't have hot water. Really??? I asked her so how do you make hot tea. She ignored my questions and refused to serve hot water. The food was not that great but average and also too salty . the service was horrible. Can't say I can recommended this place to anyone else.

I just had some of the best ramen I've ever had in my life. We came to Okiboru around 6pm on a Tuesday. We saw suggested post for this restaurant on Instagram and decided to check it out. The restaurant wasn't packed but it was a medium-sized crowd. There was one server working but she was so fast and very attentive. I got the Spicy Tonkatsu and it was amazing. From the first sip of the broth, I knew I was in for a treat. The pork was cooked perfectly and soaked so well in the spicy broth. The ramen was perfectly cooked and the spice level was perfect. Definitely felt the heat on my lips. What an impeccable entree. As an appetizer we had the pork and chicken Okiboru buns as well as the crispy Gyoza. The chicken bun was not tasty, but the pork bun was better. The gyoza was good.

I love this place. I've been to the Sandy Springs location a few times and was excited to see they have one in Buckhead now. The ramen is always delicious. My favorite thing is the Brussels sprouts though. Omg. So good. I love them. I also had a drink here for the first time. The devil's margarita. Really good and strong. I'll definitely be back.

The ramen broth!! This place was very nice. Not packed so we were able to sit down as soon as we walked in. The waitstaff were very attentive and nice. The ramen was soooo good! I slurped the broth down! It was such a rich flavor not salty or artificial at all. I will definitely be going back here!

9/10- I had to get used to the thin noodles, but I actually ended up liking that more! The food was all good, though at first I felt that the broth lacked some depth and flavor. It got better and more flavorful as I ate it which I enjoyed. I wished it would've came with a few extra ingredients (a vegetable would've been nice), and it would've been nice to pick a spice level (I didn't really taste much heat). However, I know that this may be a more traditional ramen than I am accustomed to. We got the special (can't remember the name), which includes a drink and appetizer. Both the chashu wraps and crispy gyoza was really good. The drink was also very good and the perfect level of sweetness. It makes me look forward to trying other appetizers here. Overall I thoroughly enjoyed my experience and would recommend. The service was also good.

I am obsessed with the truffle shoyu ramen at Okiboru! Truly one of the most comforting and satisfying dishes! The broth is just so flavorful and I actually prefer the thin noodles. Most recently, I came with my friend on a cold Saturday night and it was packed but we were still seated right away at a 2 top near the kitchen. The restaurant is not very big and kind of an odd shape. There was a huge group there also and we had to check on the cocktail I ordered a couple times. I think our food came out before the drink... but they were slammed I guess. They have free parking in the adjacent deck, which is nice.

I loved how the ramen place incorporated very nice vegetable ramen which I thought was delicious, The tofu was very tender and soft and was filled with flavor. The broth blended all of the ingredients very nicely. I also loved the atmosphere and the ambiance of the restaurant. It elevated the elegance of the restaurant with great decor and lighting.

Food was solid! The brussel sprouts were super good, ramen was decent but nothing extraordinary. Servers were very nice and helpful, only complaint we had was the size of the spoons! Made it a bit difficult to eat. Other than that, definitely recommend.

Spontaneously came here with my friend because it popped up for local ramen spots. It wasn't crowded and service was super fast and we got our food within 15 minutes. There's small plates that are vegan friendly but only the Yasai ramen is vegan/vegetarian friendly. Nonetheless, it was delicious and the broth was hearty and filling. Not too much and not too little. We'll definitely be coming back!

We went to Okiboru Tsukemen & Ramen of Buckhead for dinner. The food was amazing!!! I loved Tonkotsu! It was the best Tonkotsu compared to other similar restaurants in Atlanta. We will definitely go back!

I come here all the time, food is always excellent! Special s/o to Phong for the great service!

Excellent food, service and amazing Ramen. Try the Tsukemen for a change. The pork Bao Buns are to die for.

Okiboru is a unique dining experience. The food meets expectations and is absolutely worth the price for quality of the food. Where this resteraunt really shines is the service. The wait staff are attentive without being overbearing and having amazing demeanor. They seem to work well as a team and I would recommend this place as a great date night or solo adventure when looking for authentic dishes. I had Sherlin as my waitress and she immediately answered any questions I had about the food without any resistance. Great service!​

This is a great outpost of Okiboru that is a bit more convenient for the ITPers. Even better, there's parking! I came for dinner with a couple friends and we had a lovely dinner. We'd gotten caught in a big thunderstorm on our way in, and the staff was kind enough to give us some hot water to warm up with. We had a variety of ramen (tonkotsu, miso) and tsukemen, and as expected it was all amazing. My favorite appetizer is typically the ebi karaage (juicy, crispy shrimp) but we also tried the garlic nori fries and they blew us away. Some of the best fries I've had in a while!

Sherman c, our server was such a nice and good server she was very patient with us she was quick and speedy with bringing out food and drinks she had knowledge of every item her at Okiboru and when we didn't know the name of something just giving her a little description and she instantly knew. Thank you Sherman. C.

The answer to a cold and rainy day? Ramen. Dined in last week with my vegan little sister - great options for both of us. Many ramen places only have pork-laced broth, which I adore, but it was lovely to be able to feed her too! The vegetarian based broth lacked NOTHING in the flavor department either. So good. The Brussel sprouts might have been some of our faves ever - and that's saying something. This really was some of the best ramen I've ever had. The restaurant is small-ish and in the old Holman & Finch space... clean lines and a calm atmosphere. Service was helpful and pretty quick! I'm really thankful this is so close to home now in this new location!

Our waitress Sherlin was amazing And attentive! The food here is always amazing and fresh tasting. My mom and I come here often and we always get the spicy tori paitan and the spicy tonkotsu. The atmosphere is also really chill, they always play chill pop music.

Cute little ramen restaurant! I went to the Buckhead location. I got the Truffle Shoyu with Chicken, and it was great--not too truffley or oily, but definitely had an extra layer of flavor that was very unique and yummy. The portion was smaller than im used to for ramen and it was a bit on the pricier side. The ramen egg was good but nothing special! I also had the Osaka drink (I forget the full name) and it was quite strong but definitely well made. Service was a bit confusing as we had 2-3 people helping out our table but food came out fast. My food did come out before my drink which was interesting. Overall not the best ramen I've ever had but definitely fulfilled my craving.

Had the best time at Okiboru! Our server was super energetic and engaged and very attentive to us. Everything smelled delicious and came out in a timely manner. Everything tasted fresh. We did a work lunch. I had the spicy chicken ramen and the portions were very filling and tasted AMAZING! We started with the garlic edamame and it was great! You have the option to modify spice levels as well. They have a very diverse menu. Parking around back of the building and it did not require payment.

Food was amazing- had the pork buns and Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen. The Ramen was very spicy, beware, but I loved it! Our server Sherlin recommended an excellent beer (Kirin Ichiban) so major points there! She also delayed my to go order, perfectly. Great service. Would def come back!

This is my new favorite ramen spot to eat Buckhead. The drinks , appetizers, and food was delicious! We started with the chashu pork bowl , garlic fries, and a the pork bao. The chashu pork was delicious and not too greasy. The fries were very crispy and the garlic sauce was a perfect match . For the entrees , we ordered. The dipping ramen , tonkatsu ramen and the chicken ramen . I personally love the ramen here , especially since the noodles were chewy but not soggy which is the best way to enjoy ramen IMO. I would recommend anyone looking for great delicious ramen spot that makes their ramen the right way !

Overall 3/5: One of the newer locations in Georgia. We love the one in Sandy Springs and were super excited that a new one opened up in our area! Was disappointed in service and quality of food. Food 3/5: Not as good as the original location. The broth was not as good as the original, it overall tasted bland. The chasu was not cooked well, it had a lot of fat to it making it super chewy and did not have good flavor. it was also bland. We had our go-to's: ebi-karaage, okiboru buns, and spicy tonkotsu. Service 3/5: Our server was giving rude energy to us all the way up until we paid her in cash at the end and tipped over 20%. We were nice from the moment we walked in but up until she was getting tipped well we didn't feel welcomed at all. We watched her interact with other tables and felt like we weren't getting the same treatment at all. My boyfriend and i work in the industry and we understand it can be overwhelming but to look at us and think we aren't going to tip well rubs me the wrong way. She was overall rude and impatient with us from the moment we walked in. Ambiance 4/5: Definitely more modern designed than the location in sandy springs. it was clean and nice. The color scheme inside was very nice and upscale. cute for a date night, they do have cocktails and such which i'm excited to come back and try. Thank you, Okiboru.

The food is always great - the pork buns and the Tori Paitan are a must. And our server Jonah was a delight!

AMAZING RAMEN in Atlanta! The tonkotsu broth is incredible and the pork buns were very soft. My partner and I really loved how the pork in the ramen was especially tender (melt in your mouth tender!).

Love their Ramen! Both locations serve fresh made ramen. Their ramen is creamy and the spice level is just right. They halos have full bar, signature cocktails and some great sake. Ambiance is casual and quaint. The staff is polite and attentive. They offer to go, dine in or delivery through Grubhub, Doordash and Uber. They have indoor seating only at this location. The parking is limited. It can be seen from regular traffic. There's an EV charger in the plaza next door. Highly recommend them for a hearty bowl of ramen.

Delicious tsukemen (dipping style ramen) and excellent service. The servers were very attentive but not overbearing, and the ambiance is casually fine. Would recommend :)

One of the best ramen I've had in town. There's vegetarian options as well. I think the appetizers were alright. Felt like the squid fry was over priced for the very little quantity given. But definitely a place for ramen. Plenty of seating area. Service was fast.

Feeling very grateful for this ramen restaurant to have opened up nearby right in time for the cool weather! I've been awaiting their grand opening and am happy to say it lived up to my expectations! On my first visit I tried their dipping noodles. The flavor of the broth was amazing!! My next visit I tried the chicken rice bowl. It isn't a huge portion but it's listed under their small plates so that's expected. This was also very flavorful. On my second visit they also opened their full bar. They have many delicious specialty cocktails to choose from as well as a wine and sake menu. This will definitely be one of my go tos and it's a great addition to the area!
